A word cloud will display the dimensions in the chart as Text, with the size of the text based proportionally on the measure. This is best used to show the relative importance of the dimensions where the precise values are not particularly important and there is no time element. The size of the text indicates how large the related value is.

Example

This word cloud shows the number of employees in each job role using the size of the text to represent how large the number of employees is. We can see, from the size of the text, that Human Resources has the least number of employees and the Sales Executive and Research Scientist roles have the most.
